A guy in our club is looking to move on a SGC AR upper. Imagine rifle length, detachable carry handle, A post fore sight, A2 flash eliminator, right side cocking handle, but with a Wylde chambered 1 in 8" barrel.
I may be interested if the price is right but I currently don't own any configurable AR platform, but I'm considering this if I can get a fairly reasonable lower. I had a look at the SGC website as they have a "gun builder" format and choosing a lower which was A2 standard almost, except a up graded trigger, it priced that lower alone at nearly 850 quid!!!
Is that the going rate? Anyone bought just a lower recently? At that sort of money I wouldn't consider it a viable project. Any thoughts?

AR lower....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

850 is daylight robbery. Have a word with Roger at South Yorkshire shooting supplies. He has dpms,bushmaster,aero precision and doublestar all in stock.

Lower receivers range from $80 upwards, generally around $120. So don't pay anymore than £200 otherwise you are being bent over and may as well import it.

Re: AR lower....

Re: AR lower....
All the SGC kits I've tried to swap round has turned out to be very well made but "Bob spec" not mil spec.
I've not successfully mated a SGC speed master upper or lower on any Cmmg or Lantac upper or lower!

Re: AR lower....
I'd send the upper to Roger or Mark Bradley and then they can mate it to a lower. Depends which upper it is.Some of the ones I have seen are dpms uppers.
